I like that. could even add a grey bar under it like the menu bar on
the website, but with buzzwords associated with postgresql, like
'Transactional Data Integrity Extensible" or whatever.

catch-22, standard coffee mug I have in front of me, the circumference
is about 10" (25cm), so the blue bar would have to be pretty skinny to
fit the same stuff on it laid out as the website. maybe make it a
little taller proportionally and put a smaller PostgreSQL *under* a
larger elephant so its all visible from the same side, with the same
'Worlds most advanced...' on the opposite side.
